Works Bell Slim Hub + Quick Release?
 
Would this combo work on an automatic? Or do these things only work on Manuals? I am not sure if the paddle shifters would cause a problem.

It maybe could be done, but I have a feeling the paddle shifters will make it A LOT more difficult, if not impossible, to do.

Though, I'm not really one to ask. No real experience there. Just my opinion. I'm sure another kind member from this forum will be along in a little to answer this.

bump?

To be honest. It can be done. But it will be a pain. It will have to be custom and unless ur creative, it won't look good.

For comparison sake, I installed a quick release in my 94civic ex. For those that don't know, the car has cruise control buttons on the wheel. I found a wiring diagram and wired up new buttons.

Picture of the set up.

You would have to do the same idea. I know sparco sells these thin metal panels with buttons on then for you to wire up wht ever you need. They go between the wheel and the quick release. Might be viable option.

Worksbell made a quick release hub for Honda Fit that had paddle shifters. I can't imagine they won't do it for the auto FR-S or BRZ.
